Mountain Hardware EV 2 tent
Bomb Shelter!
The Ev 2 is a bunker for those cold snowy nights on the glacier. It is truly an amazing piece of gear. Weighing just over 5 lbs this single walled tent is as close to a snow shelter as you can get without being in one. As a four season tent it is fairly light, it goes up in a matter of minutes with even with one person. The three pole design is sturdy and strong, lots of guy lines for staking off with ice axes and snow anchors. As a single walled tent ventilation is vital, and mountain hardware pulled through here with excellent vents along the top. Defiantly a winter tent though, you will bake in the summer like a Dutch over cake. Phenomenal tent if you have the dough but keep in mind it’s only a cold summer night and winter tent.
